When you Breakdown

 

Here are some safety guidelines in the advent of a mechanical failure.

 

Breaking down in your car can be an incredibly stressful and sometimes frightening experience. It can leave you feeling helpless and alone, with no idea what to do or where to turn for help. However, with a few tips and tricks, you can be prepared for a breakdown and know what to do when the time comes.

 

  1. First and foremost, stay calm. It can be easy to panic and become overwhelmed by the situation, but it's important to take a few deep breaths and remain calm. This will help you think more clearly and make better decisions.

  2. Once you've taken a few deep breaths, assess the situation. Is the car still running, or is it completely dead? If the car is still running, you may be able to drive to a nearby service station or mechanic. If it's completely dead, you'll need to have it towed to a shop.

  3. If you decide to have the car towed, you'll need to determine the best option. If you have roadside assistance coverage through your insurance, this may be the best course of action. If you don't have roadside assistance, you can call a local tow truck company or use an app such as Urgent.ly to quickly find help.

  4. Once you've contacted the tow truck company, you'll need to provide them with your current location. Make sure you have the exact address and any nearby landmarks that can help the tow truck driver find you. If you're not sure of your exact location, use your phone's GPS or ask someone nearby for help.

  5. Once the tow truck arrives, make sure you have your driver's license and insurance information ready. You'll also need to provide details about the car, such as the make, model, and year.

  6. Once the tow truck driver has loaded your car onto the truck, they'll need to know where they're taking it. If you don't have a specific mechanic in mind, you can ask the tow truck driver for a recommendation.

  7. Once the tow truck driver has taken your car to the mechanic, you'll need to determine how you'll get back home. If you live nearby, you may be able to walk or take public transportation. If you live farther away, you can call a friend or family member for a ride or use a ride-hailing service such as Uber or Lyft.

 

Breaking down in your car can be a stressful experience, but with a few tips and tricks, you can be prepared and know what to do when the time comes. Take a few deep breaths, assess the situation, and make sure you have your driver's license and insurance information ready. Remember to stay calm and you'll be back on the road in no time.
